Alright, tinfoil hat time:
What with this arc’s title, Tremontio’s mannequins being “five or six years out of date,” Sweetheart’s sudden appearance, and now Tip mentioning explosions that neither we nor Unity have heard about, I’m calling time shenanigans.
There are a few loose ends from “Purple Waves,” among them Ira’s sudden prescience.
Finally! Now I’m caught up. What’s going on with your “gocomics” connection? That’s how I’ve been able to keep up and it hasn’t updated for three days….
Even so, he doesn’t seem to budge even under the shock of a fully-grown zombie at top speed yanking on her line. Even assuming he knows her well enough to brace himself, that’s pretty impressive.
Is a peck on the nose Sweetheart’s “blue berry waffles”?
Either that or it’s the fact that she has a longstanding crush on Unity.
It’s not that she can’t still use her legs – the nanos handle that – it’s the annoying way her torso keeps flopping over backwards.

I blame Stephen King.
What become of her new straw hat that should have come to me?
Waga na wa Unity!
Finally! Now I’m caught up. What’s going on with your “gocomics” connection? That’s how I’ve been able to keep up and it hasn’t updated for three days….
Yeah, it hasn’t been showing up in mine, either—and I’ve been too busy to notice!
I had noticed that, too. But it’s tomorrow now, and they’re all caught up again.
Apropos of nothing much: I’ve just eaten some jam made by “Wilkin & Sons, Tiptree, Essex.”
I knew that Alice Sheldon had based her male pseudonym on Tiptree Jam, but I hadn’t realized the “Wilkinson” connection. Well done, Shaenon-and-Jeff.
I always thought Unity had a lot of spine.
Well, she has a lot of spines.
(Collect the set!)
Looks like U.N.I.T.Y.’s lunge line is plenty strong enough.
And that Tip is stronger than he looks.
People always forget that Tip was an army captain that carried people from a burning Humvee, huh?
Even so, he doesn’t seem to budge even under the shock of a fully-grown zombie at top speed yanking on her line. Even assuming he knows her well enough to brace himself, that’s pretty impressive.
Not to mention that he knows U.N.I.T.Y. well enough to put her on a lunge leash in the first place. That takes genre savvy.
I notice Unity takes off and Tip doesn’t even grimace to restrain her. That is one bad ass in Tremontino….
Spines, not spine. Plural.
Well, sure, it’s plural now. She just needs someone to put all the pieces back together and make it singular again.
How is Tip’s arm still attached and his shoulder not dislocated?
He was in the Army, and pretty strong.
If he hadn’t been anticipating it, things would be quite different.
